controller (Check Figure 1-1). A twin-cord cable is recommended but not 
required. 

Please be careful to spot the 

‗+‘ and ‗-‘ when connecting. No damage will result 

if the polarity is reversed, but the controller can‘t read a reversed sensor 
voltage. Plugging the voltage sensor wires into to the RTS300R10K5.08A 
terminals (10

th

 Port) will cause an alarm or damage the controller. 

  Communicate Connection 

WARNING: 

Shock Hazard!   

There should not any communication cables and power lines 
intertwined. Separate them as far as possible to void electric shock.   

AVERTISSEMENT : 

Risque d'électrochoc!   

Il ne doit y avoir aucun mélange entre les câbles de communication 
et les lignes d'alimentation. Séparez-les avec une distance aussi 
grande que possible pour éviter un électrochoc.

   

There are two kinds of communication: RS-232 and RS-485. Please use 
matching communication cables and make sure the cables are connected 
firmly during data transmitting: the below features are supported with 
communication interface: 

Monitor each controller on the network using Solar Station PC software; 
update the firmware. 

 

RS-232, RS-485 Connection 

The controller is a standard 3.81-4P port. Check Figure 1-1 for the port location. 
The RS-232 port is 7

th

 port and the RS-485 port is 8

th

 port on the controller. 

  Power Wires Connection 

 

PV Wire Size 

Since PV array output can vary due to the PV module size, connection method 
or sunlight angle, the minimum wire size can be calculated by the I

SC

 of PV 

array. Please refer to the value of I

SC

 in PV module specification. When the PV 

modules connect in series, the I

SC

 is equal to the PV 

module‘s I

SC

. When the 

PV modules connect in parallel, the I

SC

 is equal to the sum of PV 

module‘s I

SC

The I

SC

 of PV array must not exceed the maximum PV input current, please 

refer to the table as below:
